Ceremony Coffee Roasters to open at 520 Park

December 1, 2014

Ceremony Coffee Roasters will open its third coffee shop in Mount Vernon.

The Annapolis-based coffee company will open in a 3,000-square-foot space at 520 Park Ave.

Ceremony currently has a coffeehouse within its Annapolis roastery, as well as a coffeehouse at the Festival at Riva Shopping Center called Caffe Pronto. Ceremony Coffee rebranded from Caffe Pronto three years ago, but kept the existing name at that cafe.

The Baltimore shop is set to open in the spring, said Dominic Wiker, development director for the Time Group. The Time Group is converting 520 Park Ave., formerly a Hochschild Kohn warehouse, into a mixed-use apartment building.

With the coffee shop on the south side, the first floor will also house the Mount Vernon Marketplace, a multi-vendor space, on the north side of the building.

“I think it’s really going to be a perfect fit for the neighborhood,” Wiker said.
